Pretty Girl at the Airport Lyrics
Wish me luck I know you think I'll need it
For all the hardest roads we have to walk alone
And you don't have to tell me that you love me
For all the words I've never understood
I know, I know
The wind that blows from here to California
Never stops to turn and wonder why it goes
And you don't have to tell me when you're leaving
For all the plans I've never understood
I know, I know
Leave now while you can
I'm not your man
I know, I know
To have your things and wait there for a plane ride
No one there to sit and hold your hand in flight
But everyone I know out here is lonely
Even those that have someone to lie beside at night
Leave me with the dawn
It's almost gone
I know, I know
Leave now while you can
I'm not your man
I know, I know
For all the hardest roads we have to walk alone
And you don't have to tell me that you love me
For all the words I've never understood
I know, I know
Never stops to turn and wonder why it goes
And you don't have to tell me when you're leaving
For all the plans I've never understood
I know, I know
I'm not your man
I know, I know
No one there to sit and hold your hand in flight
But everyone I know out here is lonely
Even those that have someone to lie beside at night
It's almost gone
I know, I know
Leave now while you can
I'm not your man
I know, I know

i love this song
i love this song as well. i feel like it's about true love, like you don't even have to say the words..the other person just knows.
i love this song too. easily one of my favorite avett songs. but i'm not sure that you know what this song is really about. you said it's about true love, but do the words "leave now while you can, i'm not your man" evoke true love? and does the other person just know that they are boarding a plan that will exit them from both the town and their relationship?
